It's a load of crap anyway. i read that Eastenders got about 5 million viewers last week, and Neighbours would get 4 million overall in the day! a travesty. Susan Kennedy used the word "semantics" today - you see, where else do you get that calibre of vocab on a soap, of all places?!!!! :x

Where else indeed? And I bet those Ozzies knew what she was talking about! The only thing that bugs me about the 'Neighbours' school is that every lesson takes place in one classroom! Do these kids move around at all?

Neighbours should stay because it is a class soap with some funny moments. Channel 5 would certainly increase their profile with it and the fact that it contains some cool telly already - C.S.I., Prison Break, Shark, House - would mean that it may finally be seen as a competitor to the Beeb.

Wow 5 million! Thats represents a whole 8.2% of the population of the uk.

It does however mean the other 91.2% don't. This means like me most people are to busy living their own lives to give a toss about a bunch of fictional aussies, Yorkshire folk, sodding cockneys or dim witted demi-mancs.

John, what do you really think? lol :lol: Don't forget the aging population means that at least 5million people are forced to watch it in old persons homes.

Check out these Dr K facts - hilaaaaarious!

DR. K FACTS:

Inspired by Charlie Osbourne, I have decided to write down a few little known facts about KK.

1)When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night, he checks his closet for Dr. K.

2)Dr. K doesn't read books. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants.

3)Dr. K does not sleep. He waits.

4)Dr. K counted to infinity - twice.

5)When Dr. K does a pushup, he isn’t lifting himself up, he’s pushing the Earth down.

6)Dr. K doesn’t wear a watch, HE decides what time it is.

7)Dr. K can slam a revolving door.(Elle and Clare's favourite fact)

8)Dr. K does not get frostbite. Dr. K bites frost.

9)Dr.K can touch MC Hammer.

10)Dr.K once ate an entire bottle of sleeping pills. They made him blink.

Those facts make me chuckle, although if you saw those in magazines, someone's lifted them from chucknorrisfacts.com. There's also one for Vin Diesel. However, there's no denying that Dr. K is himself a phenomenon. For some reason...

Further brilliance on Neighbours today from Tom will-you-shave-that-stupid-bit-of-beard-off-cos-it-looks-crap Scully. he used the word "Lexicon". marvellous. but hey, what i don't understand on Neighbours and some other soaps is the passage of time. for example, Sky and Lolly both leave as say 5/6/7 year old girls - ish. and come back at least 3 years older than they should be. but today, the kids were on what could only have been a Saturday detention - an heretical idea in itself if you ask me, weekends are sacred - but then had to leave a party later cos it was a school night. :?
